Override next_url so all users redirect to index page after login

[andyweb...@gmail.com]

Most of my users never log out.  Their sessions expire overnight, so they have to login each morning. After login, the next_url parameter redirects them to their previous page.

What is the recommended way to override this default behaviour? I want to redirect all users to the index page every day, after they login.

Any suggestions much appreciated!

You could try adding something like this to your auth definition. There's two parameters passed to the callback function. I can't remember what the first one is. It might be the form? I use it to add extra info to the auth.session object but you might be able to call a redirect.

auth.on_accept['login'] = after_login_callback

def after_login_callback(_, user_row):

    # Fetch the reseller_id from the auth_user record

    if settings.DEBUG == True: print(user_row)

    reseller_id = user_row['reseller_id']

    # Add reseller_id to the auth.user object

    auth.session['reseller_id'] = reseller_id

Thanks for the pointer Eddie - I will look into this.
